Sick bearded dragon please help?!?

By law only a vet can diagnose..." sgt reptile. That's funny...retarded but funny nonetheless. This is about advice not diagnosis.

Alright. So the stopping breathing and puffing up. This is usually a defense mechanism.

They so this when they're scared so maybe the bath wigged him out a bit. Get him quarantined ASAP! Do not let him around your others.

Maybe it's not infectious but maybe it is...don't risk it. Drip water on his nose to keep him hydrated and feed foods that are easy to digest, stay away from mealworms, superworms. Avoid any loose substrate.

Keep temps Absoloutly perfect too. And lastly, you will need a vet visit. Because there's only so much we can do it sounds like this is one of those times where a professional is needed.

All the best.

Wow, I feel for you and your beardie. You ovbiously have a very big heart to take on such a big mission. How long had he been sick befor you took him on?

When was the last time he ate? When was his last movement? What substrate was he on?

Type of heating/lighting? Im sorry, to have so many questions. He will definitly be needing a vet but maybe with more info someone might know just what to do......

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
